Bought this after using husband’s now obsolete really heavy earlier model.
Pros: it’s light, cuts beautifully and with plenty of control
Cons: the cable is a bit short and requires frequent repositioning of extension cable. This is particularly annoying as they’ve changed the attachment method from old version (which had a tiny lead that you could never cut through) joining onto a long cable by a special connector. I was hoping to repurpose this which is why I picked this model
Cables aside, this felt wonderful to use and it’s sparked jealousy in friends who have also struggled with heavier models. I would absolutely recommend

Easy to use and cuts really well. I like that it’s not too heavy to hold when using it

Exactly what you expect from a great name, reliable. Easy to assemble the hand guard, very lightweight, I was pleasantly surprised by how light it was. We have a full hedge that is quite thick but this had no problems cutting through, comfortable to use.

Nice, light, effective, hedge trimmer.

This is light and has just easily cut through a massive jungle of honeysuckle with some quite large branches. I bought it as a one job purchase but it still looks brand new after 2 hours of non stop use on tough honeysuckle and it’s ready to use again. I noticed in other reviews that that some thick people have said the guard is pointless, this is wrong as the guard actually slots in and screws and is rock solid., THE GUARD WORKS PERFECTLY. Lightweight and easy to use. Took me just two hours to cut through a huge amount of unruly honeysuckle that had about 15 years of untended growth. I’m impressed and very happy with this cheap but very good quality hedge trimmer. Thank you.

I looked through so many hedge cutter reviews prior to buying this one.
I was genuinely expecting it to burn out on the motor due to the fact I’ve neglected the mock orange bush / tree! This dealt with it and showed no signs of engine stress. I was able to get through quite thick branches. Including a very thick dry rose. I cut as deep as the blades allow one side of the branch and then repeated the other side and it was as good as a pair of lops. Some branches around 1 inch thick were also cut through with this cutter. Not sure how long it will live doing this. But it will only need to cut wispy off shoots next year. Win win

I have only used the hedge trimmer twice now, but it is well designed and works beautifully, even with the addition of a very long extension. Had the mains cable itself been longer (AND IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN!) I would have given this mini review 5 stars! In any event, I would highly recommend this product.

Bought this as a replacement, we had an older model black & decker and this was the closet to the spec of the old one.
Size is good, not too heavy and gets the job done.
Would recommend and would buy again
